Has anybody tried these Dianese super air drake pants yet? These are supposed to provide good protection in hot weather and be much cooler than jeans. I saw a review that they are cooler than jeans and feel you are wearing shorts.

I have the Dianese new drake air pants and they are great for cool to warm weather. (But too hot over 80 degrees)

I highly recommend the Dianese pants because they are so comfortable. They are a little pricey but top quality. The first pair of Dianese pants I bought were the Daianese Alien Pelle pants and they are fantastic. I feel invincible in them and they are unbelievably comfortable. I have had them for 5 years and they are still like new. I had to buy the Air Drake pants for summer and they were great also but too hot for over 80 degrees.

I'm confused.. what is recommended for over 80 degrees?
Dainese super air drake pants
I have the others and they are too hot. I would like to know if anyone has the Dainese super air drake. I have read that they are cooler than jeans almost like shorts.
Nobody has any suggestions for hot weather pants, nobody???

Most of the mesh pants are great. Above 80 degrees, avoid the black ones. The black mesh heats up while stopped and then when you go, the breeze through the mesh puts all the heat onto your legs.
Black pants like black helmets absorb heat, I recommend khakis.

Living in NorCal, I wear the Dianese pants most of the year, dropping them (no pun intended) during the winter for a Gortex version from Rukka and a fully mesh pair from IXS or Rev'it in summer. In terms of fit and comfort, the Dianese win out as they have a better texture on the skin, can be drycleaned easily and have a leaner, close-to-the-leg fit. The vent over the knee area works well and the zippers are superior to anything from Vanson, which is what I grew up wearing. Does anyone really ride in unarmored jeans anymore?
